10 Questions to Ask Your LED Lighting Supplier & Installer

Posted by
Doug Root
on September 29, 2016

When looking at upgrading your lighting in your facility there are some very important questions to ask your potential lighting partner. At ALB Energy Solutions, we want to the take the time to understand
your goals and objectives, ensuring your satisfaction and a successful lighting
retrofit. We hope you look at lighting as an investment not an expense.

Although, our ultimate hope is
that WE get a chance to partner with you on your upcoming lighting project, we
understand in some cases you may be getting quotes from vendors before making
your final selection. As lighting professionals, we have complied some useful questions to ask. We have also included our answeres to the questions.

1. How many years has your
company been in business? (How long in the U.S.?)

ALB: 35 Years – U.S. Atlanta based, family business – 2nd
generation ownership. The owners Doug Root and Jesse Root live and work in
DeKalb County.

2. Who manufactures your lighting products or do
you distribute for US brand names? (If major brands, which ones?)

ALB: We offer over 120 brands of energy efficient lighting
products from brands you know, such as PHILIPS, OSRAM, Maxlite, Acuity &
Halco. Due to the inconsistencies in dealing directly with Chinese LED
manufacturers, Atlanta Light Bulbs does not directly import LED bulbs and
fixtures.

We believe that true LED manufacturers are in the business of
research, design and improvement. We demand high quality LED products. We are
in the business of specifying and distributing LEDs and energy efficient
building products. We are not an importer or a manufacturer.

You will find many local small LED companies that claim to
manufacturer the product. However, they are solely buying product directly from
one of the thousands of undocumented oversea manufacturers. They then market
themselves as a manufacturer. Since little R&D goes into their products,
they are usually selling LED technology that is several generations behind the
latest technology available. What happens if they go out of business?

Like
the LED Mart pictured to the left.

3. How many documented Google, Yelp or Shopper
reviews do you have? Can I get 3 referrals?

ALB: We believe in earning your business, so we encourage our
customers to grade us on our performance and sharing their experience with
other customers and potential customers. We are not perfect but we strive for
excellence. Yes, We have plenty of happy clients to refer you to.

ALB: Yes. Lighting Specification, Installation, Project
Financing, Utility Rebates. We can finance the entire project. We have 3rd
party partners who can structure a deal where the energy savings can offset
your payments.

5. Do you have a physical warehouse where you
stock product?

ALB: Yes, we have a
20,000 square foot facility that houses over $500,000 of product made up of
7,500 different SKUs, a state of the art lighting and energy solutions
showroom, our inside sales & customer service team, and our executive
management team.

6. Do you have product liability insurance? How
much?

ALB: Yes, we carry, $2,000,000 in product
liability and also have $5,000,000 in Umbrella coverage. You can be sure we do
have you covered.

7. If the product fails after the purchase or
during the warranty period who do I contact?

Find this out! On some products you may bring the product
back to where you purchased the item. This is an area that a lighting buyer
needs to pay close attention to. We have seen 5 LED store fronts pop up within
our own area in the past 24 months of those 2 have closed.

Some manufacturers will cover the warranty directly so you
will deal with the factory rather than the distributor, if they go out of
business what next?

Many of the LED lines that smaller LED companies carry are
not represented by a manufacturers corporate office in the US. So, how do you
get in touch with a factory in Shenzhen China if you have 3 bad fixtures sold
to you by them from an importer who no longer carries the line or is out of
business?

ALB: If you are
dealing with us you will come directly back to us and we will help to
facilitate the warranty by working with you and the manufacturer.

8. Does your product have any of the following;
Energy Star, DLC or LDL qualification?

ALB: We try to use DLC
or Energy Star rated products when we can. DLC ratings are good for lighting
buyers as they put all the LED products on an even playing field. Overseas LED
manufacturers can claim whatever they want about a product with no liability.
However, if they want to get a LDL, DLC or Energy Star rating their product
goes through strict testing and the labeling requirements mandate industry
standard information and dissipate far-fetched claims of excessive life spans
and lumen outputs. These ratings are good to look for and ask for when
shopping.

9. Is your business a member of any local or
nationally recognized organizations?

ALB: Yes, we have won
the Kennesaw State Coles College of Business Small Family Business of the Year
in 2014 - We were also the runner up in 2013. Additionally, we were one of the
Top 200 Electrical Distributors in the United States in 2014 and 2015! In 2014,
we were awarded the Think Global Exporter of the Year in
Electronics/Electrical. We are a member of the National Association of Electrical Distributors(NAED). Finally, we have been recognized by the Secretary of
State as an Extraordinary Georgia Family Business.

10. Do you have certified Lighting Specialist on
your lighting team?

ALB: Yes, we send our
team through independent testing by the National Association of Lighting
Distributors. The LS-1 certification ensures you are dealing with a
professional who has taken the time to learn about lighting and the way it
impacts business and energy usage.

BONUS... Are you a Georgia
Power Trade Ally (facilitating energy rebates)?

ALB: Yes, we are and we will handle the entire
process for YOU! Sit back and enjoy the savings and benefits of your new
lighting & energy efficient products-
